Oh my god. That is hilarious. Jim Morrison as college dork.
Next we're going to see him in film shorts from the 50s with him as a little kid learning what the world would be like without zinc.comment:www.metafilter.com,2005:site.40330-875051Thu, 10 Mar 2005 09:02:01 -0800Jupiter JonesBy: jonmchttp://www.metafilter.com/40330/People-Are-Strange#875052
Thankfully they cut the clip off before he asked the admissions counselor, "You wanna see my cock?" and all hell broke loose...comment:www.metafilter.com,2005:site.40330-875052Thu, 10 Mar 2005 09:02:06 -0800jonmcBy: fandango_matthttp://www.metafilter.com/40330/People-Are-Strange#875072

Dude. When I worked at the FSU movie channel, we *so* had that in our archives.
If only we had realized the goldmine of kitschy goodness we were sitting on. Ah well.comment:www.metafilter.com,2005:site.40330-875103Thu, 10 Mar 2005 09:49:32 -0800methylsalicylateBy: milnakhttp://www.metafilter.com/40330/People-Are-Strange#875393
Remember the days when college videos only consisted of white people?comment:www.metafilter.com,2005:site.40330-875393Thu, 10 Mar 2005 14:40:14 -0800milnakBy: Goofyyhttp://www.metafilter.com/40330/People-Are-Strange#875794
What's with the film "Falluja" that came up after the Morrison/FSU film? Cool music, lots of explosions. Like, showing how KEWL it was to join the army and kill people, or something like that.
I liked the Jim Morrison film. I was just a tad too young to be aware of him during his career.comment:www.metafilter.com,2005:site.40330-875794Fri, 11 Mar 2005 06:44:52 -0800Goofyy
